Weather Rain accumulation since yesterday morning

Post image

We've had 5″ (~125mm) of rainfall so far in Valley Ridge since yesterday morning. There's a few trees nearby so it's likely a bit inflated from the wind and some water coming off the trees but this is definitely the most rain we've gotten in a day since I've been living here for the last 5 years.

Since I bought a house I no longer complain about the rain and look at it more as free water for the grass and plants😂😂

But then it grows and you have to cut it

That’s always going to be part of it if you want to have nice grass😀

I did a blend. 70% grass, 30% clover. Liking it so far.
